The Islamic State in
Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) group has shot down a warplane from the US-led
coalition over northern Syria, according to a monitoring group, with ISIL
claiming to have captured the pilot.
ISIL's branch in
al-Raqqa published on Wednesday photographs on various websites, purporting
to show its fighters holding the captured pilot, with a caption identifying
him as Jordanian and giving his name.
"We have confirmed
reports that IS members took a [non-Syrian] Arab pilot prisoner after
shooting his plane down with an anti-aircraft missile near Raqqa
city," the UK-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said.
Several photographs
were released, including one showing the pilot, wearing only a white shirt,
being carried from a body of water by four men.
Another showed him on
land, surrounded by about a dozen armed men.
ISIL members claimed to
have shot down the warplane with a heat-seeking missile.
